Biography
Ernst-Robert Grawitz was born on 8 June 1899 in Charlottenburg, Berlin, Germany. From 1935 to 1945 he served as Secretary-General of the German Red Cross, but at the same time he was a Nazi Party member who funded efforts to "cure" homosexuality and to eradicate the world of gays. Grawitz became an Obergruppenfuhrer of the Schutzstaffel (SS), and he served as a physician to Adolf Hitler in his bunker in Berlin. He was denied permission to leave Berlin like other officials, so he killed himself, his wife, and children with a grenade at their house in Potsdam-Babelsberg.
